Juristat Top Patent Firms | Education

Education isn’t one docket. LMS platforms, testing/proctoring, adaptive content, and classroom devices face different examiner mixes and claim strategies. Ranking by allowance rate within G06Q (education) and G09B isolates performance in the solutions you actually prosecute. It levels the field across firm size and mix and centers the outcome clients care about: Did the work convert to granted rights in this industry? CPC granularity keeps comparisons apples-to-apples, so a platform specialist isn’t measured against hardware-heavy dockets, and vice versa.

The result: fair, comparable standings you can defend in a partner meeting or an RFP.

How we define the education industry

Education spans learning platforms, assessment tools, and instructional hardware—often overlapping with enterprise software and consumer devices. To keep comparisons fair and apples-to-apples, we anchor this view to CPC subclasses that most directly capture education-specific systems and tools. We emphasize G06Q (data processing methods tailored to educational platforms and workflows) and G09B (teaching/learning appliances and content delivery).

We don't measure general-purpose computing or consumer electronics not tied to instructional use are excluded to avoid diluting the signal. For multi-industry filings, we classify by the primary CPC and standardized rules documented in the methodology.
